An ENJOYABLE Occasion.

The young people Of Marshall and vi.
cinity were made glad last Thursday by
receiving an invitation from Mr.. and
Mrs. Samuel Roads to spend the even.
ing at their residence. The guests ar.
rived early and NEST enjoyable even.
ing was spent. After they were served
to oysters and cake-and such cake-the
spacious rooms were throw open and the
command was given to enjoy themselves.
Music, games, charades, etc., made the
time pass quickly, but the guests linger-
ed till late in the night. Much of the
pleasantness of the evening was due to
Misses Maggie Hiestand and Fannie Nc.
Keehan and Spencer Calvert, of the
Hill City. The recitations of the two
young ladies were much appreciated by
those present. Charles and Hettie Keys
rendition of that old song "Golden Slip
pers" was most excellent, and Miss Ell.
sic Roads "Conmon Bilr' was in har.
mony with the merry mood of the
evening. The party were carried home
with the merry sleigh.bells wishing that
they might again enjoy the hospitality
Of their entertainers.

DEATH OF BURCH MILLER


Cornelius Burch Miller died at 2
O'Clock on last Thursday afternoon from
the effects Of an injury received at Blan.
chester on December Sd, the result OF a
fall under the wheels of a passenger
tain. At that time his left foot was
crushed 90 badly that 1t had to be ampu.
tated, and the following morning he was
brought to this place and taken to the
Kramer House, where he remained un.
til he died. Fears for his recovery were
entertained from the first, owing to his
advanced age and to his having been
troubled somewhat from scrofula, but
he passed safely over what in such cases
is supposed to be the dangerous crises,
and his many sympathizing friends had
begun to hope that he would ultimately
recover. He suffered slight change
for the worse Wednesday evening and
gradually sunk until came the final sum.
mons Of the grim reaper.
Burch Miller, as he was familiarly
known by all, had been prominently
identified with the business interests of
this city since early manhood, having
been for long time engaged in the gro
cery business where Hiestand's store
now is, and afterward in the room now
occupied by Capt. John Matthews.
In the campaign of 1857 Mr.. Miller
was elected to represent this county in
the Legislature, but he never sought po.
litical honors, and life at the Capital had
so few destinations for him that he re-.
signed after serving but one winter, and
returned to his business pursuits.
A few years ago he retired from that
business, since which time he had been
engaged in the purchase and shipping
Of stock. He had come to be known to
railroaders between this place and the
eastern markets as one of the most ex.
tensive individual shippers in the bust.
ness. He built the elegant residence on
East Main street, now owned and occu.
pied by Capt. Frank Armstrong, at a
lost of $50, 1000, and at that time it was
considered palatial building. Suffer.
ing pecuniary reverses he was compelled
to dispose of it, and about four years
ago himself and wife removed to farm
near Pixies Chapel, west of town, where
he had since resided.
He was popular and honest citizen,
and his death is deeply deplored by all
The obsequies were conducted at the M.
E. Church at eleven o'clock Saturday
morning, Rev. Davis w. Clark and Rev.
DR.. w. J. McSurely officiating. Messrs.
James Anderson, Allen Cooper, H. S.
Foraker, James Carlisle and Coils. w. H.
Glenn and G. 7. Pope acted as pail
bearers, and the remains were inferred
in the Hillsboro cemetery.

The War Views.

The Tiffin advertiser has the following
to say regarding Chester's War Views,
which will be exhibited at the Arm ory
for three days, beginning January 81,
for the benefit of the local G. A. R. Post:
The views, attractive and instructive
rs they are, are not the only merit of
the entertainment. Miss Nellie Grover,
daughter of the lecturer, is pianist of
much more than ordinary merit, grad.
uate OF the Washington Conservatory of
Music, and q musician of superior ex.
cellence; and her performance is an at.
tractive feature of the entertainment.
Col. Grover, the lecturer, is a gentle.
man of versatile and scholarly attain
ments. Born at New Brunswick, New
Jersey, he was educated in France, grad
uating with honors at the Ecole dance
lin, Paris, one of the finest military
schools in the world, and to-day holds a
commission as lieutenant in the French
army. At the outbreak of the late war
he returned to this country and was
commissioned as Captain in the Eleventh
New Jersey regiment, and in March,
1853, was promoted to Colonel of Engi.
neers. He has travelled alr over the
world, and speaks with fuency seven
different languages. In 1859 he was ap.
pointed by President Grant to an import
ant consulate in Italy, and for four years
lectured upon the war under the an.
spices of the Boston Lecture Bureau,
His lecture Is instructive as being the
language of one who thoroughly under.
stands the subject and was q participant
in many Of the scenes depicted.
